Huang Quan: Fifteen
Fanbang's cats are indeed different from other places, the snow-white fluff is like freshly picked cotton, soft and fluffy, and the palms of the scratching hands are itchy.
Mu Zili is curious about the cat's eyes, one blue, the other green, and the cat seems to be difficult to accept the new owner, and the tender pieces of meat are placed in front of him, which is no match for the vigilance of nature.
Holding the cat in her arms felt fresh, Mu Zili went out, a little unthinkable, the cat's claws hidden under the soft fluff scratched her, took advantage of Mu Zili's pain to let go, and quickly escaped.
Mu Zi called the palace maids to look for it together, and searched the grass for a long time, and when he looked up, he saw that the snowy cat was playful and cunning, standing on the wall and meowing under the other wall.
The palace ladies stood under the wall and looked up, and a few hurried to find the guards to carry the ladder. Mu Zi approached, tied a knot in the hem of his riding clothes, let the palace maids dodge a little, and then took a few steps back and suddenly forward, stepping on the wall and climbing onto the wall.
But the cat was more agile than Zhimu Zili, one step ahead of her, and meowed a few times to jump off the wall.
Mu Zili climbed on the wall and looked down, and saw that the white cat who was still naughty and arrogant was lying in the arms of a person obediently and docilely at this time, and the person gently stroked the snow-white fluff of the cat, and was raising his eyes and looking at Mu Zili on the wall with a smile.
Mu Zili saw the person in front of him, his heart was happy, and he called: "Brother Cheng!" Then, ignoring the exclamations of the palace maids under the wall, he jumped off the wall.
After stumbling a few times, before he could stand firmly, a pair of hands had already helped Mu Zili well, and said with a slight reproach: "It's all big girls, what should I do if I fall down so carelessly?" ”
Although he said words of reprimand, his words were full of care, Mu Zili's heart was warm, and he stretched out his hand and grabbed the naughty cat into his arms, bent his eyes to look at the young man with a beautiful face in front of him, and laughed: "This little beast knows that Brother Cheng is a good person, so he is willing to pounce in your arms, my second brother hugged it, and was bitten by it." ”
Li Cheng shook his head, "I'm a neighboring proton, what good can I have." ”
"What's wrong with Proton!" Mu Zili felt that it didn't matter, "There are several protons in Chongshan Country, none of them are as good as Brother Cheng, but speaking of which, in a few months, Brother Cheng should go back, and if I want to see him again, I'm afraid it will be difficult." ”
Li Cheng looked at Mu Zili, his eyes were deep, hiding all his emotions, he raised his hand and pinned Mu Zili's hair behind his ears that was hanging from a branch when he was chasing the cat, and said gently: "No, if you want, you will see you again." ”
Mu Zili's face turned red, and he asked, "Are you still serious about what you said that day?" ”
His eyes moved slightly, Li Cheng didn't speak, only nodded silently.
"That, that ......" Mu Zili plucked up his courage and said: "Then I promise you that I will marry you when you ask for marriage after you return to China." ”
Li Cheng looked at the girl in front of him, her eyes flashed with excitement, although she plucked up the courage to say it confidently, a bright little face, but it was dyed with an unconcealable crimson.
Nodding, Li Chengying said, "Okay, Ah Li will definitely be the most beautiful bride in the world." ”
This sentence was imprinted in Mu Zili's heart for a long time, until Li Cheng said goodbye and left, still in place, covering his face with the white cat in his arms with shame, hehe smirked, the startled cat suddenly grew hair, screamed out of Mu Zili's arms, and escaped without a trace.
Mu Zili felt that Li Cheng was the best young man she had ever seen, although his face was not amazing, but he was also delicate and attractive, and sometimes he unconsciously revealed his demeanor, which had the majesty of an emperor. Among the several protons detained in the Imperial City of Chongshan Kingdom, Li Cheng was the least submissive and dumbfounded like the others, he was hardworking and gentle, knew how to be motivated, and his words and demeanor were not much more elegant than her second brother.
Speaking of which, Mu Zili doesn't understand why the two brothers don't like Li Cheng, the second brother is reckless, he hates more people than he likes, so he hates Li Cheng, but the eldest brother, who has always been steady and silent, doesn't like Li Cheng very much, but the slightly better thing is that the eldest brother knows how to measure proportion, and never thinks of ways to teach Li Cheng a lesson like the second brother, and he is not allowed to interact with Mu Zili, but a courtyard wall blocks Li Cheng, but it can't stop her Mu Zili.
Since he was a child, Mu Zili often gave him delicious food, and if he met a bully minion, he would also stand up for him, and although he didn't say much, he could always attract her attention, sometimes a frog folded in paper, sometimes a kite drawn in the shape of a dragonfly, he always seemed to be able to come up with something new, bringing her surprises again and again.
A little older, Mu Zili noticed her affection for Li Cheng, not like her brother, better than her friend, and the palace maid Qingqing told her that this was the love of two childhood sweethearts.
Mu Zili suddenly realized that she was looking forward to seeing him because of love.
Thinking like this, Mu Zili couldn't help blushing again.
Chongshan is the most powerful country among the surrounding countries, and the king of Chongshan is benevolent, and does not carry out bloodbathing and suppression of other countries, but only detains protons from a few countries, raises them until they are eighteen years old, and then can be released back to the country.
In an instant, in front of me, Mu Zili was fifteen and Li Cheng was eighteen.
In the summer, the wind from the pond carries the fragrance of aquatic plants through the corridor and into the pavilion in the shade, with a slight coolness.
Mu Zili sat in the pavilion, rubbing the longbow he had just obtained, and the beast pattern made of fine iron was held in his hand, making this bow domineering and unassuming.
Humming the tune he heard from the community, Mu Zili did not have the elegance and virtue of being a princess, and was comfortable and leisurely on Erlang's legs, and was happy and complacent in order to snatch the bow from the second brother.
After wiping, Mu Zili put a long arrow on the string, closed one eye and aimed at the stout old willow not far away, and was about to try the right head, but found that behind the willow tree, a figure calmly walked out, the person stood under the upside-down willow branch, looking at her quietly.
Mu Zili hurriedly put away the bow and arrow, for fear that he would be reckless and hurt again, stood up, laughed a few times, and beckoned: "Brother Cheng, come here!" ”
Li Cheng approached, looked at Mu Zili's extremely casual sitting posture, frowned slightly, but quickly stretched out, and put his eyes on the bow and arrow beside Mu Zili.
"This bow is so beautiful." Li Cheng took a closer look and praised sincerely.
"Brother Cheng likes it?" Mu Zili was straightforward and fast-talking, and he broke the young man's heart in one word.
Li Cheng stretched out his hand and gently stroked the pattern of the beast on the bow and arrow, as if caressing a lover who had not seen him for a long time.
"The pattern on this is cast as the totem of my Xia Kingdom, and this bow is my father's favorite thing, but I didn't expect to pay tribute this year, and I actually sent it over."
Mu Zili was a little embarrassed for a moment, and pushed the bow and arrow to Li Cheng's side and said: "I don't know that this is your family, presumably when my father ordered someone to receive it, I don't know that this is your father's favorite, I never ask about political matters, but now that this bow is here, I will return it to you, just remember to put it away, don't hold it and be seen by others." ”
Li Cheng shifted his gaze from the bowstring to Mu Zili, and smiled a little coldly: "Ah Li knows how to practice and play all day long, and naturally there are many things that he doesn't understand, I'm afraid you don't know that there is a saying in this world, called "Under the whole world, it is not the king's land", in the same way, things are the same. ”
Mu Zili didn't get used to the gentle young man's sudden indifference for a while, and Mu Ne nodded and said, "I know this sentence." ”
"It's good to know." Li Cheng smiled, returned to his former gentle appearance, stretched out his hand to hold the bow in his hand, and said in a low voice: "If you take someone else's in this world, sooner or later you will have to pay it back, Ah Li gave me this bow, and one day, I will return you with others." ”
Mu Zili waved his hand and said generously: "What's more, this is yours." ”
"Yes." Li Chengyou responded in his heart, "This was originally mine." ”
Raising his head, looking at the bright smile of the girl in front of him, free like a bird perched on the branches, Li Chenghu sighed, seemed to be sad, a little sad, and said softly: "Ah Li, next month, I will go back." ”
Has it finally arrived?
Mu Zili felt a loss in his heart, but he still forced himself to smile all over his face, "Then congratulations, Brother Cheng, in fact, I know that you have long wanted to go home." ”
"Ahh Li Cheng hesitated for a moment, and gently pinched Mu Zili's slightly rounded cheek with his hand, "Don't laugh, it's ugly for you to cry like this." ”
Mu Zili hurriedly stretched out his hand to wipe away his tears, "Is that it, it's hard for us to see each other in the future?" ”
"No, it won't." Li Chengyan affirmed, "You have been good to me all these years, because of you, I can survive in this deep palace with no relatives and no support, I will keep it in my heart." ”
Mu Zili's face turned red and asked, "Then will you really come to ask for a kiss?" ”
Li Cheng nodded, "Yes, I will definitely treat Ah Li well in the future." ”
Mu Zili's sadness turned into joy, and he wiped the tears on his face, "I'll wait for you." ”
"Okay."
It seems that everyone is prone to make such mistakes, when they are together, they feel that the taste is dull, and they are about to separate, so they try to keep it and cherish it desperately, but time does not wait for others, and it will still flow without emotion, so that the time will come sooner or later.
For the next month, Mu Zili would go to Li Cheng's place every day to play, and the second brother was quite annoyed by this, and after locking the two gates, Mu Zili climbed over the wall.
The queen mother of the Chongshan country noticed her daughter's thoughts, and the kind woman didn't think about it so much, she only knew that the child was older, and finally had the appearance of a girl, an ignorant girl, and an object of her own favor.
Once Mu Zili sat in front of the mirror, looked at the queen mother who combed her long hair with her cheeks, and asked curiously: "Queen mother, how should a girl be considered married?" ”
When she asked this, the always gentle queen mother actually pointed her head with her hand and reproached with a smile: "My daughter's family is not ashamed to ask such a thing. ”
Mu Zili smiled and said naughtily: "The old gentleman has said that he is sensitive and studious, and he is not ashamed to ask, I am humbly seeking a solution." ”
The queen smiled helplessly and shook her head, "Splash, I really can't do anything about you." ”
